STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- The city's Civilian Complaint Review Board, which has taken on a higher public profile following the July 17 death of Eric Garner in NYPD custody, will be holding its next public meeting on Staten Island.

The CCRB, which investigates claims of police misconduct, has typically held its monthly public meetings in its Manhattan office, and usually in the morning.

Where and When

The CCRB will conduct its next public meeting on Staten Island:

Date: Wednesday, Sept. 10

Time: 6:30 to 9 p.m.

Where: Borough Hall, 10 Richmond Terrace -- Room 125

The Staten Island meeting comes on the heels of a change in leadership at the civilian oversight board, and after criticism that ordinary citizens, especially those living in the outer boroughs, can't easily attend morning meetings in Manhattan.

This will be its first night meeting in more than a decade.

In a written statement, CCRB chairman Richard Emery said, "I am committed to building the public's faith in the CCRB, and being present in the communities where the people we serve live is an important part of that commitment. Going forward, our meetings will be held in every borough, to listen to people who want to talk to the CCRB and to give people the chance to see the Board openly discuss and debate its actions and initiatives."

This upcoming meeting will take place from 6:30 to 9 p.m. Sept. 10, in room 125 of Borough Hall at 10 Richmond Terrace.

Mayor Bill de Blasio appointed Emery, a civil rights attorney and longtime friend of NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton, to lead the board in July.

According to an Aug. 26 New York Times piece, in the six months after Bratton replaced Raymond Kelly as the city's NYPD commissioner, the NYPD declined to discipline officers in more than 25 percent of the cases where the CCRB substantiated misconduct claims.

Emery said at that meeting he'd welcome the idea of night meetings, telling Dunn, "My dream is to have CCRB vans. Right? Where we go to the places where geographically we determine the most complaints are coming from and they're there, and they can take complaints, and they have investigators taking actual investigative reports... They could do mediations in the vans. They could do all kinds of things in the communities where people are and have difficulty getting here."
